Would be interesting to see a country-specific version of this where everyone is.

For me it's -

Hi, I hope you're dealing with all the shops being closed on a Sunday

I live in a country like this and believe me, it's refreshing. Yes it's an inconvenience some times, but the alternative is 24/7 hell: once the expectation is that you can get anything you want, whenever you want then you start to compromise the lives of everyone because someone has to work those shifts, and if companies have to man those shifts they damn well will make profit-which is usually at the cost of staff pay. And then when you're in line at 2am getting peanut butter and packing foam you realize the Karen in front of you yelling at the cashier because they don't have chocolate croissants, is a product of this cycle.

I'm also a big fan of most things being closed on Sundays. It's so much more peaceful outside. Good for the soul to not have 24/7 consumerism stuffed down your throat. I also don't like that it's always the people with the shittiest jobs/salaries who suffer because Karen needs chocolate croissants at 2 am
